    When I first glanced at this picture and without reading, I thought it was Chrisette Michelle… I think it was the hair. :) Either way, both beautiful women.

    BELLA

    UMMM.. ..SORRY JAZZYTAMRA BUT, ALTHOUGH MARY IS THE QUEEN SHE DOESNT REALLY HAVE A SUPER AMAZING VOICE HERSELF. SHE’S ALSO KNOW FOR HER “FLY” FASHION THORUGH THE YEARS.

    PEOPLE STOP PITTING THESE CELEBRITIES AGAINST ONE ANOTHER, EVERYONE IS FLY IN THEIR OWN REGARD!!!!!!!!!

    PEACE OUT!

    Truth

    Mary’s the queen…period. Her swag over the years is amazing. And although she doesn’t have the best, technically trained voice, you can FEEL her unlike some other “singers”. Mary always keeps it 100% Mary, she’s been authentic & raw from the gate. Respect & love.

    BTW, 2nd pic is hilarious. I wonder if she’ll do it for the A&E crowd? lol.

    @FallBackHaters
    you must be very young to think that pose mary is doing was invented by jay-z and/or lil mama. it’s called b-boy/b-girl stance. it’s been out since the 70′s. nothing new. and mary been doing that pose her whole career, lol.

    Im so over Mary…I find it strange that when it comes to other artist, everyone says ish like “she needs to switch it up”, “Im tired of seeing her”, “She needs to take a break”……but mary releases albums back-2-back, never switches up her style or music, and has been rockin thigh-high boots for the past decade (ok slight exaggeration)….but she gets a pass becuz she use to do drugs or becuz she’s experienced bad relationships…WTF????

    Anyway, she’s beautiful and very sexy. I hate how she sings live, but you can her emotion in her voice. And Mary is just plain ole Mary I guess (*shruggs shoulders)

    Dead @19!

    You do have a point.

    Also, how many of these style shows is she going to do? it’s nothing new she can talk about, and it’s to the point that when I hear her talk now, I don’t want to her hear preach and try to make a difference, just sing your damn songs for crying out loud. It’s like each album some channel does one of these VH1-Storytellers-esque show for her the past few years.
